Glen Maye Mill

Archaeology

Modern watermill (site of).


The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1868-9 shows a building at the grid reference provided, together with the annotation, 'Corn Mill'.


The mill was supplied by a leat, the final 40m of which formed a millpond to provide greater power storage. The millpond led straight to the wheelpit, which was located adjacent to the east gable of the building. A tail race returned water to the river just below the mill.


The mill has long been destroyed and its site is occupied by a dwelling and garden.
